- reclaimID is a decentralized identity system build on top of the GNU
- Name System.
- Upon authorization, the user provides a requesting party (RP) such as
a website
- with an authorization ticket (e.g. piggybacked in an OpenID
authorization code).
- The RP uses information contained in this ticket to
- <ol>
- <li> Retrieve the decryption key from GNS</li>
- <li> Retrieve the user attributes from GNS</li>
- </ol>
- The GNS lookups ensure that the RP receives up-to-date attributes and
functional
- decryption keys. However, in particular the RP-specific encryption key
- resolution can be slow and even fail depending on the network topology.
- We propose that in an initial exchange, in particular OpenID
authorization code

the ticket

- <h4>re:claimID alternative GNS-based encryption</h4>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- re:claimID is a decentralized identity system build on top of the GNU
- Name System.
- The initial design and implementation of re:claimID includes an
attribute-based
- encryption module in order to prevent unauthorized access to
attributes in the
- name system.
- Our motivation for re:claimID was for it to be name system agnostic,
which
- means the design theoretically also works for other name systems such
as
- namecoin.
- Other name systems often do not have built-in mechanisms in order to
do this.
- Hence, we implemented an ABE access control layer. Our ABE
implementation
- requires two third party libraries: libpbc and libgabe. While we could
merge
- libgabe into the gnunet service implementation of re:claimID, libpbc
is a
- rather large, third party library which lacks packaging in
distributions and
- for platforms.
- On the other hand, GNS supports record data encryption using symmetric
keys as
- labels.
- If we make the access control layer of re:claimID more generic in
order to
- support both ABE and GNS encryption, we could reduce the required
depenencies.
- This would result in gnunet packages to include re:claimID by default.

- <h4>Enable all networking applications to run over GNUnet out of the

- One great problem of the current Internet is the lack of
- disintermediation. When people want to talk they need a
- chat service. When they want to share files they need a
- file transfer service. Although GNUnet already possesses
- quite advanced integration into Linux networking, a little
- extra work is needed for existing applications like irc,
- www, ftp, rsh, nntpd to run over it in a peer-to-peer way,
- simply by using a GNS hostname like friend.gnu. Once
- people have added a person to their GNS they can
- immediately message, exchange files and suchlike directly,
- with nothing but the GNUnet in the middle, using
- applications that have been distributed with unix systems
- ever since the 1980's. We can produce an OS distribution
- where these things work out of the box with the nicknames
- of people instead of cloud services. For more information
- and context, read
